Levadura de Malicia (Spanish, Paperback)

A fake announcement in the local newspaper regarding an engagement between a young man and woman from Salterton's high society revolutionizes life in the city. The alleged bride's father, Professor Vambrace, is not willing to forgive an offense he considers insulting, and his planned lawsuit against the paper could have unpredictable consequences. Meanwhile, a storm is brewing in the editorial department at the "Evening Bellman," in which its affable director, the owner's intriguing daughter-in-law, and a veteran editor find themselves immersed. The rest of the city buzzes with rumors as the residents ponder what role the crazy organ player and the new choir teacher have in the scandal.""This second installation in the Salterton Trilogy and the sequel to "Tempest-Tost" portrays peaceful provincial life in a Canadian city with masterful irony. "Un anuncio falso en un periodico local de un compromiso matrimonial entre dos jovenes de la alta sociedad de Salterton revoluciona la vida en la ciudad. El padre de la supuesta novia, el profesor Vambrace, no esta dispuesto a olvidar una ofensa que el considera injuriosa y su anunciada demanda podria tener consecuencias impredecibles. Mientras tanto, en la redaccion del "Evening Bellman" se desata una tormenta en la que se ven inmersos su afable director, la intrigante nuera del dueno del periodico y uno de los redactores mas veteranos. El resto de la ciudad se convierte en un hervidero de rumores mientras los residentes se preguntan que tienen que ver en el escandalo el alocado organista de la catedral y un advenedizo profesor de canto." "Esta segunda instalacion en la Trilogia de Salterton y la continuacion de la novela "A merced de la tempestad" retrata con magistral ironia la tranquila vida provinciana de una ciudad canadiense."
